Alain Badiou visited the mural “20th of October” at the initiative of Edition Yugoslavia. On this occasion, the mural, painted to commemorate the 70th anniversary of Belgrade’s liberation, was presented to Badiou. A brief conversation was held with Mirjana Radovanović, a member of KURS, Marko Miletić from Kontekst Collective, and other visitors.

Edition Yugoslavia, in cooperation with the Student Cultural Centre from Novi Sad and the Cultural Centre Studentski grad from Belgrade, organized the visit of Alain Badiou, the French philosopher and one of today’s most important thinkers. Badiou’s first visit to Belgrade and Novi Sad was marked by a series of lectures and discussions with the audience.

It’s something beautiful, not only politically. Beautiful intervention, something new!
To create big image on the block is very exciting. Architecture, poem, image, context, everything.
